Type material
Holotype: USNM 213519 (not examined). Type locality: off West Florida.
Material examined
MARTINIQUE • 1 ♀; E of Le Vauclin; 14°34.2ʹ N, 60°44.8ʹ W; depth 90 m; 14 Sep. 2016; st. AD231; MNHN-IU-2016-1199 • 1 ♀ gr.; same collection data as for preceding; MNHN-IU-2016-1322.
Remarks
This is the first record of this species since its original description from central West Florida by Child (1992b). The two specimens were sampled at the same station, off Le Vauclin (Atlantic coast). They are morphologically very similar to Child’s description. Unfortunately, CO1 PCR amplifications were negative for the two DNA extracts.
Distribution
Only recorded from West Florida (Gulf of Mexico) and Martinique.
Depth range
73– 90 m.
